A very extraordinary cases is about to
come before the high tribunal of Malaga
in Spain. A few months ago a woman
belonging to the village of TorroX de-
clared that the Virgin Mary had appeared
to her and had ordered her to preach a
new gospel for the salvation of mankind,
as the end of the world was at hand.
The woman's story seems to have been
believed without hesitation, and soon the
whole village was In state of religious
frenzy. The woman preached in favor of
the abandonment of earthly possessions,
and advocated return to the mode of
life and habits of primitive man. During
the height of the frenzy large fire was
lighted in the village, into which the
converts to this fantastic superstition
threw their valuables, furniture and
clothes, men, women and children dan
cling and shouting around the fire in a
state of complete nudity. Warned of
what was going on, the local gendarmerie
arrived only just in time to save the in
fants from being thrown into the fire by
their frenzied mothers, and to prevent
the houses of the village from being set
on fire.

The Preparation Of sss,skins,

Few skins are less attractive than this

and hidden by the dull gray-brown and
grizzled over.hair. This mask ha, then
to be removed, and it is an operation re-
quiring patience and skill, with conse-
quent increase in price. The unhairing
is effected by warmth and moisture,
which softens the roots of the 0ver-hair
and enables it to be pulled out, or by
shaving the inner side very thin, which
cuts off the roots of the hair, which PEN
citrate deeply, and leaves untouched those
of the fur, which are very superficial.
Whichever method is employed, the hair
must be taken off uniformly, or the fur
will never lie smoothly. but always have
q rumpled look; aud this can never be
corrected by any subsequent treatment.
This will explain to some extent the
cause of the high price of sealskin jack
cts aud cloaks, and also the cause OF the
different prices one hears of, as q good
many skins are more or less spoilt in the
dressing. Another cause, too, is the
quality of the dye, and the workmanship

the skin il then rolled up, fur inside. and

Coal Gias as a Substitute for
Natural Gas.

Even if all the gas wells should fail.
says the New York Times, it is not pro.
bable that the consumers of gas will be
compelled to revert to the old way Of
using coal. AS we showed some weeks
ago, gas made from coal can be supplied
at very low prices to those who now
depend upon the wells. Experts inter.
ested in the natural gas business are
already making experiments looking to
the manufacture of cheap coal gas 10
take the place as natural gas. This coal
gas may not be required for years to
come, but when it shall be needed it will
be at hand. Professor Lesley shows
that the supply of coal in the Pittsburg
region is estimated at 30.OOO,OOO tons,
an amount that centuries may not ex-
haust. Very cheap gas can be made out
of this coal and supplied to consumers
as the natural ga, is supplied. More
over tho 40. 600, 900 tons of waste coal or
culm lying ON the surface in the anthra.
cite region will yield, it is said. good
fuel gas at q cost of 2 cents per 1000 feet.
Perhaps it woald be well for manu-.
facturers who are thinking of moving
their works to Pittsburg to bear in mind
the opinion of geologists and the history
of the oil business. Probably they can
rely upon a supply Of natural gas for
some years, but 1t would be the part Of
wisdom not to rely exclusively upon it,
bu9 to consider what effect failure Of
the supply would have, and to fiad op!
what can be done with gas made out oi
coal and coal.waste. 1t should be said,
however, that if natural gas is to be fol.
lowed by coal gas the regions where coal
is plentiful and cheap will be as attrac.
tive hereafter to the manufacturers oi
certain products as the natural gas re-
giops are now.
